My hometown (which is a suburb in a major metro area) didn't have school buses. Kids either walked, rode bikes, or got dropped of by parents.

Uhm... yeah. What's so surprising about it?
Kids younger than 7 yo can use public transport freely, after that and till the age of 14 (the age of getting a passport) they are required to have a permit which is issued by the school for free.

No-no-no, what I meant is getting dropped of by a parent.
The legal age of driving is 16 for scooters and 18 for cars\motorcycles. A license is required too.

A bus is basically a mobile ghetto. It would be like sending your kid downtown by themselves.

>>61014016
You would unironically get charged with child endangerment if you sent a 7 year old on a public bus by themselves.

In the US public transportation has a bad rep because of the war declared on it by the car companies. You consider public transportation a poor man's choice, something a self respecting person would never use.

In the rest of the world it's a common and reliable way of getting around.

Walking, bike, dropped by mom, in public transport or school bus (here aren't as fancy as OP pic).

>>61014417
Buses are full of poor people. I used to ride one regularly in college and I'd see someone have some psychotic meltdown at least once a week. Downtown in most cities isn't dangerous in terms of crime, but why would you allow a child to go alone into a crowded adult environment with heavy traffic everywhere?

>>61014456
It has a bad rap because it's genuinely full of poors.
>common and reliable
Why? If you can afford a car, then why would you ever choose to travel on the city's schedule instead of your own?

Depends on parent's idiocy. Some cucks send their kids to ''''elite'''' schools which can be on the another part of the city. So they go to school by subway/trams/buses and spend 1+hour on a one way trip there.
But most of us went to local closest schools, so we used to walk.
>>
>>61012725
public transportation or you just walk since every child is guaranteed a place in a regional school which in my case was a 4 minute walk...
>>
>>61014626
>If you can afford a car,
it's a needles expense when there's a bus every 10 minutes, the stop being a 2 minute walk from your doorstep.
Driving in the city is also pretty terrible

>there's a bus every 10 minutes, the stop being a 2 minute walk from your doorstep
Maybe in the densest, richest cities. Most cities here would never spend that much money just to help the poor people who use buses.
>>
>>61014626
Because good luck driving around cities that have hundreds of years of history behind them, and consequently, old buildings packed so tight you're stuck with road plans meant to service a 100 carriages an hour, not tens of thousands of cars. Terrible jams and no parking space are a problem in every city.
I get that cars might be really great in the States, but here in Europe public transit is king.
>>
>>61015573
Public transport could be great here, but I think we'll always be stuck in the endless loop of
>the public transport is shit, so only poors use it
>why would we fund something that only poors use?
And it will continue until self driving cars make it even more irrelevant.

on foot

>>61012725
I live in the countryside and went to a country school.

There was a bus, but it only drove on the main roads, so kids from small villages had to walk. Not much though, only 3km for me.

But because of conflicting times, it was often more time-efficient to just walk the whole 10km or whatever.

by car, blasting reggaeton during the process

It's completely understandable in some places, when I was in SF I reliably took buses everywhere except for the one time I needed it to be right on time, took fucking ages

But in a city like mine the buses are way, way too unreliable and sparse to use

if israeli pupils have a designated bus for school-
it never looks like that retarded yellow bus that american pupils use

anyway, mostly public transportation/walking/cars (17+)

Public school: walking.

Private school: school bus, unless it's close which is rarely the case.
